Course Description:
In this course we will be looking at the changes in American culture that occur as the United States goes from relative isolation at the end of the 19th century to an active and integrated part of the global community by the beginning of the 21st century. We will examine ways in which U.S. culture was impacted by its international involvement. The course will examine why this happens and how Americans responded to this new international role. We will explore reactions to, and results of, that expanding role both inside and outside the United States. Throughout the course we will seek to answer the following two part question: Why does the United States move from relative isolation into an international role and what are the consequences for U.S. society of that change?

课程简介 Course Description
本课程介绍国际经济学中的微观部分，国际商品贸易与要素流动。主要内容包括：国际贸 易与要素流动的产生原因及其对各国生产、消费以及社会福利的影响等；不同条件下的贸易模式；国际贸易政策与产业政策分析；国际经济中的主要现实问题等。
This is a course on open-economy microeconomics and trade. The goal of this course is to examine several interesting topics such as trade pattern, factor movements, trade policy and its impact on national welfare. The first module of the course will lay out several useful theories regarding the trade pattern, and the second module will help you assemble these theories into an overall analytical framework. The third module will challenge you to apply this analytical framework to real-world applications.
By the end of the course, I hope that you will have developed a keen interest in issues related to international trade, as well as a set of analytical tools that can be applied on other fields. You should be able to analyze, in an unbiased way, a wide array of important international policy issues.
